Unpacking

When packaging is removed from product you will notice there are several items nested in the packaging base.

The burner crowns, burner caps and trivets can be fitted to the hob. The regulator or test point fitting installation is described in the front of the manual with UNPACKING. The cookers come in three gas types: Natural gas, Propane and Universal LPG. If the cooker is required to use ULPG, a conversion kit can be obtained by contacting the Customer Care Centre for details. Before installation, check that the cooker is suitable for the gas supply by looking at the data plate behind the bottom of the oven door. The following table shows the supply and operating pressures for various supplies.

*If the regulator is placed upstream of the cooker inlet, as is normal for cookers operating on LPG, then the supply pressure and operating pressure are the same.

The following table shows the injector sizes for each burner.

Checking pipe size

To work out a suitable pipe size for connection use the information in this table.

Also use information about the length of the run, number of elbows, tees and bends, the available service pressure and the supply requirements. AS/NZS 5601.1 will help you with this matter

Operation ON NG

• The appliance regulator MUST be orientated so that the pressure nipple is accessible.

• The arrow showing the direction of flow MUST be pointed correctly.

• The regulator has a ½” BSP internal thread at the inlet and outlet.

Wiring connection for gas cooker

To allow for disconnection of the appliance after installation, the plug must be accessible after installation. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

Gas connection

Read these points before connecting to the gas supply:

  • The cooker inlet connection point has a ½" BSP external thread. See diagram below.
  • An NG regulator or a LPG test point fitting is supplied.
  • It is recommended to fit the regulator or test point fitting to the appliance connection point, then fit either hard piping or a high level flexible connection (AS/NZS 5601.1 clauses 5.9 and 6.10.1.9) which is then attached to the consumer hard piping.
  • Ensure installation allows withdrawal of appliance.

Operation on universal LPG/propane

1. The appliance inlet fitting provided MUST be orientated so that the pressure nipple is accessible.

2. The inlet fitting has ½" BSP internal thread at the inlet and outlet.

Operation on SNG

  • If the cooker is to be used with SNG, then the grill burner MUST be modified by the replacement of the shutter, which fits into the throat of the grill burner
  • A conversion kit can be obtained by contacting the Customer Care Centre.

Testing the gas cooker

WARNING : You MUST test the cooker after installation, before you hand it over to the customer. You MUST have a manometer and a connecting tube.

Checking the gas supply

1. Check the manometer zero point is correct.

2. Connect the manometer to the cooker pressure test point. This is located on the regulator or LPG inlet fitting.

3. Turn on the gas supply and the electricity (if applicable) and try to ignite the gas.

4. Check the operating pressure for the particular gas type (see 'Gas Type' table).

  • For LPG cookers: Adjust the regulator if necessary (this may be remote from the cooker).
  • For Natural Gas cookers: Regulators are supplied pre-adjusted and configured by the component maker for use with Natural Gas. The appliance installer is not required to make an adjustment to obtain the correct outlet pressure setting. An arrow on the base of the regulator indicates the direction of the gas flow when the inlet and outlet of the regulator are orientated correctly

5. When the regulator has been fitted check for leaks from the connections with soapy water.

Checking regulator function

With the appliance operating, check the outlet pressure:

1. When all the burners of the appliance are operating at maximum.

2. When the smallest burner of the appliance is operating at minimum.

Under both these conditions the outlet pressure should not vary from nominal operating pressure of 1.0kPa by more then ± 20% (ie ±0.20kPa for Natural Gas).

If the regulator does not appear to be performing satisfactorily then check the following points:

1. If the outlet pressure is consistently too low then

• the inlet pressure may be too low and adjustment of an upstream regulator may be needed, or

• an upstream regulator or valve with insufficient flow capacity may be present in the gas supply line. It may be necessary to repeat the checks whilst measuring both the inlet and outlet pressure to determine if the inlet pressure is in the range 1.13-5kPa.

2. Check that the regulator has been fitted to the gas supply line in the correct orientation.

3. Replace the regulator if it fails to perform after the checks.

Testing Burner Performance

  • Observe the flame appearance on each burner when set to max. If it is smaller or larger than expected, then the injector size needs checking (refer to table).
  • When maximum flame appearance is correct, check the turn down setting on each burner. If incorrect, proceed as follows:

WARNING: Disconnect electric power.

1. Remove the control panel and adjust the bypass screw when valve is set to maximum. The screw is mounted on the body of each hotplate control valve.

2. Check the ignition on all burners both separately and in combination.

3. Check the operation of the electrical components, if applicable.

4. When operating correctly, show customer how to use the cooker.

5. If not operating correctly, advise the customer to ring Electrolux Customer Service Centre. Place a warning sign on cooker or if dangerous, disconnect cooker.

Gas oven conventional baking

The heat comes from the bottom oven burner. The temperature at the centre of the oven is the same temperature set on the control knob. When oven is used on this mode, shelf position is important, (refer to ‘Oven Guide’). As hot air naturally rises, the upper half of the oven will be approximately 10°C higher and the lower half approximately 10°C cooler than the set temperature. For best results from your gas oven use dark coloured trays and baking dishes on a single shelf. Refer to ‘General Hints and Tips’ section for more information. For best baking results preheat oven for 30 minutes

Gas oven fan forced baking

Fan Forced baking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional baking. Most recipe books, unless stated, are for conventional oven temperatures. It is recommended when using the fan forced mode to reduce the oven temperature by 10°C. In a fan forced gas oven the heat comes from the bottom burner. Hot air is distributed by an electrically operated fan located behind the rear wall of the compartment, providing an even temperature on all shelf levels. This means batches of the same food can be baked using multiple shelf positions simultaneously. Fan Forced operation can be used for single shelf baking with equal success. For best baking results preheat oven for 30 minutes.

Cookware

For best baking results with gas ovens, dark coloured trays and baking dishes are recommended.

Gas hotplate

Ensure burner caps, crowns and trivets are properly assembled. For wok ONLY use the trivet and burner dedicated for wok cooking. Burner cap and burner crown must be clean and located correctly for the burner to light.

Gas oven burner flame

From a cold start the oven burner flame will be higher on the left hand-side. After reaching the set temperature, the flame will become even. This does not affect cooking results.

LIGHTING GAS HOTPLATE, GRILL AND OVEN

Electronic ignition with flame safeguard

This hob is fitted with mains powered electronic ignition. When the appliance has been connected and the power is on, depressing ignite button will release sparks to all burners. To light a burner, depress the corresponding knob fully and while continuing to depress knob for approximately 5 seconds, turn anticlockwise to ‘HI’ position. The flame sensor must warm-up in order for the flame to stay alight. The knob may be released once the flame is established, and turned further anticlockwise to reduce the flame height as desired.

• Before releasing the knob, ensure the knob is fully depressed.

• If the flame goes out when the knob is released, simply repeat the ignition procedure again.

Hotplate Ignition – (Manual)

To light a burner, depress the corresponding knob fully and while continuing to depress the knob approximately 5 seconds, turn anti-clockwise to 'HI' position. At the same time, hold hand-ignitor next to the burner and ignite (hand-ignitors not supplied). The flame sensor must warm up in order for the flame to stay alight

Grill Ignition – Electronic

While pressing the electronic ignitor switch, depress the corresponding knob fully and while continuing to depress the knob for approximately 5 seconds, turn anti-clockwise to 'HI' position. The flame sensor must warm up in order for the flame to stay alight.

Grill Ignition – Piezo

Depress the grill control knob fully and while continuing to depress the knob for approximately 5 seconds, turn anticlockwise to 'HI' position. The flame sensor must warm up in order for the flame to stay alight.

12. Programmable Clock – sets baking/grilling reminder times – sets automatic cooking duration and stop time. NOTE: Clock time must be set before operating oven.

Radiant hotplates

The high-speed radiant hotplates heat rapidly from a cold start. This saves power. The hotplates have a tray underneath the hob which collects spilt liquids. This tray can be removed by sliding it out through the open grill door (except model WLE524WC).

Radiant elements also swivel for easy cleaning.

Solid hotplates

The strong solid-cast hotplates give wide contact for fast efficient cooking. Hotplates are sealed to prevent spilt liquids from running under the hotplates. If there is a red dot present in the centre of hotplate, this indicates it is a high power hotplate.

When necessary, apply a coating of hotplate protector to solid plates to maintain them.

Ceramic hotplates

  • The ceramic cooktop is made from ceramic glass, a tough, durable material that withstands heating and cooling without breaking. However, it must be noted that as it is glass, it may break, and must therefore be treated with care. Should you have any questions about the glass in your new appliance, please contact the service centre by dialling 13 13 49.
  • The smooth glass surface has a pattern to show where the elements under the glass are located.
  • When a hotplate is on, the hot surface warning light will come on. After switching off, this light will continue to glow until the temperature of the hotplate drops below 60°C.

Electric oven conventional baking

Heat comes from two elements, one above and one below the food. The bottom element is hidden below the floor of the oven. As hot air rises naturally, the upper part of the oven will be approximately 10°C higher than the set temperature and the lower part of the oven approximately 10°C cooler. For grill in oven models, the grill dish must be removed when baking. For best baking results, preheat oven for 30 minutes, also refer to ‘General Hints and Tips”.

Electric oven fan forced baking

In a fan forced electric oven the heat comes from the rear oven element. Hot air is distributed by a fan behind the rear wall of the compartment, providing an even temperature on all shelf levels. This means, batches of food can be baked using multiple shelf positions simultaneously. Fan forced operation can be used for single food baking with equal success. Fan Forced baking generally requires lower temperatures than conventional baking. Most recipe books, unless stated, are typically for conventional oven temperatures. It is recommended that when using the fan forced mode, reduce the oven temperature by 10 degrees (refer to ‘Oven Guide’). For best baking results preheat oven for 30 minutes.

Cookware

For best cooking results with electric ovens, silver or shiny trays are recommended.

NOTE: Three button timer models MUST have clock set after a power outage to operate oven.

3 BUTTON PROGRAMMABLE CLOCK

Your oven is equipped with a 3 button timer that has the following features:

• Timer – you can set a countdown time that will beep when the set time has elapsed.

• Cook time – you can set cooking duration. A timer will count down the preset cooking time, beep when the time has elapsed and turn the appliance off.

Selecting the timer

• Press the MODE button until the timer ‘indicator’ begins flashing.

• Set the countdown time you want by using the - and + buttons. 5 seconds after the last change the timer ‘indicator’ will stop flashing and the countdown will start in minutes.

• To stop the beeper, press any button.

• Maximum countdown time is 2hrs 30mins.

Setting the cooking duration

• Select the desired oven function and temperature.

• The oven indicator light will glow and the heating source will come on.

• Press the MODE button until the cook time ‘indicator’ begins flashing.

• Set the cooking duration you want by using the - and + buttons. 5 seconds after the last change the cook time ‘indicator’ will stop flashing, and the time of day will be displayed.

NOTE: Remember to add pre-heating time if necessary

To check or cancel settings

• To check your settings, press the MODE button until the indicator you want is flashing.

• To cancel ‘auto shut off’ press the mode button until the ‘cook time’ indicator flashes. Press and hold the - button until the clock no longer reverses (at 0:00 you will hear a beep). If you have left the temperature and function knobs at a setting, the oven will start once the ‘cook time’ indicator stops flashing. Because you have cancelled ‘auto off’ the oven will continue to heat until you manually turn it off.

On completion of cooking

• The heat source will turn off, the timer will beep and cook time indicator will flash.

• Even though the heating element turns off the oven will still retain substantial heat. This will continue to cook the food until it is removed or the oven cools down. If you do not plan on being present when the oven turns off, you should take this extra heating time into account.

• Turn the function and temperature controls to the off position.

• Press any button to stop the timer beeping.

Adjusting the clock

• Press the MODE button until the clock ‘indicator’ begins flashing.

• Press the - or + buttons to change the time of day. 5 seconds after the last change, the clock ‘indicator’ will disappear, confirming the time has been adjusted.

GENERAL HINTS AND TIPS

Using the grill

Separate GrillGrill with door open.
Grill dish must be fully inserted. (Refer to SEPARATE GRILL DISH INSERTION)
Grill In OvenGrill with door closed.

General hints

For best baking results preheat oven for 30 minutes. The material and finish of baking trays and dishes used will affect the way foods are baked, especially base browning.

  • Enamelware, anodized aluminum, dark bakeware or non-stick interiors, and colored exteriors will assist in maintaining or reducing the baking time and increase base browning.
  • Ovenproof glassware or ceramics are poor conductors of heat. The shiny surface of aluminum or polished steel utensils and trays also reflects the heat rather than passing it through to the food being baked.
  • Always place dishes in the center of the shelf to ensure even browning.
  • Stand casserole dishes on a baking tray to prevent food from spilling onto the base of the oven.
  • Use ovenproof cookware, which will withstand temperatures of 250°C.
  • Use shallow casserole dishes in preference to deeper ones as this shortens the cooking time in the oven.

Conventional Oven

  • The shelf position is critical. The temperature in centre of the oven is the temperature shown on the oven control knob. Single shelf baking gives optimal cooking results.
  • DO NOT place baking trays, oven dishes or foil directly on the base of oven, as trapped heat will crack and craze the floor of the oven liner.

Fan Forced

  • Make sure shelves are evenly spaced.
  • When baking more than one dish in fan forced oven, place dishes centrally on shelves rather than several dishes on one shelf.
  • When the oven is full you may need to allow a slightly longer baking time.
  • When using different size trays or cooking different types of food, cooking times may vary for each dish.

Condensation and steam

  • During cooking steam may be produced which can be released when opening the oven door. This is quite normal.
  • If there is any build-up of condensation on the oven door it is recommended that it be carefully wiped away either during or after cooking.

SEPARATE Grill dish insertion

CLEANING THE COOKER

Ovens and hotplates are made from steel and enamel. Do not use abrasives and harsh scourers as they may scratch the surface.

Enamel

  • Keep enamel clean by wiping it with a soft cloth dipped in warm soapy water.
  • Rub difficult stains with a nylon scourer or cream powder cleanser.
  • DO NOT use abrasive cleaners, powder cleaners, steel wool or wax polishes.
  • If you use an oven cleaner, follow the instructions on the product carefully

Stainless Steel

  • All grades of stainless steel can stain, discolour or becomes greasy. Clean the cooker regularly, using the procedures outlined below, to maintain the function and appearance of your appliance.
  • Care must be taken when wiping exposed stainless steel edges as they can be sharp.
  • The front frame around the oven can be cleaned with stainless steel cleaners if it becomes soiled or discoloured.
  • A suitable cleaner can be purchased from Electrolux Customer Care Centres.
  • Always clean the stainless steel in the direction of the grain. Going against the grain may scratch the surface.

Oven Shelves

  • Chrome shelves: use detergent and hot water. If very dirty use a non-abrasive nylon scourer.

Oven – Grill Dish and Insert

  • After every use and while still warm, wash pan and grill with warm soapy water and a suitable oven cleaner. Rinse and dry before replacing in position.

Oven

  • Use detergent, warm water (and household cloudy ammonia if necessary) and a soft cloth. Dry thoroughly.
  • Remove shelves when the cleaning oven.
  • If there is a build-up of grease use a suitable oven cleaner, following the instructions on the cleaning product carefully. Heat oven to 110°C and turn oven off when 110°C is reached. Leave over-night. The fumes will loosen stubborn grease and stains. Remove bowl, wash with hot, soapy water and dry well before closing oven door again. Ensure oven is thoroughly rinsed and dried before subsequent use.

Ceramic hotplates

Remove all spilt food with a razor blade scraper while the hotplate is still warm – NOT HOT.

  • If aluminium foil, plastic items or foods with a high sugar content melt onto glass, use a razor blade scraper to remove immediately before the hotplate has cooled, otherwise pitting of the surface may occur. High sugar content foods include jam, fruit, carrots, tomatoes and peas.
  • Sometimes SURFACE stains appear to be ‘bubble’ marks under the ceramic glass. These can be cleaned off with a razor blade scraper and ceramic cleaner.
  • When the ceramic hotplate has cooled, wipe clean with dishwashing detergent and a damp cloth.

NOTE: DO NOT use abrasive sponges or scourers, oven sprays or stain removers on ceramic hotplates. These may damage, scratch or stain the ceramic cooktop. Any pitting, staining or scratching WILL NOT be covered by warranty.

Solid hotplates

Solid hotplates are fitted with stainless steel trim rings, which after initial use, change colour to light brown. This is a normal characteristic of stainless steel and will not affect the operation or performance of your hotplates.

  • Clean off any spillage after hotplate has cooled down.
  • At regular intervals, clean hotplate with a nylon scouring pad and soapy water. Wipe clean then warm hotplate for 30 seconds to dry the surface.
  • Apply ‘hotplate protector'. Set hotplate on high for 3 minutes to allow coating to harden.

Radiant hotplates

These plates are self-cleaning. Any liquid which boils over will burn to ash and can be wiped off when the hotplate has cooled. To clean the trim rings, lift front of element and remove it, then wash in warm, soapy water. To clean any spillage that falls through the element, remove the spillage tray and wash in warm soapy water.

Gas burners

  • Flame port blockages should be removed with a small metal cake skewer or nylon brush.
  • Clean dirty spark plugs very gently with a nylon scourer. Do not use steel wool. Do not bend spark plug as it may break.
  • If the caps, crowns and cups are heavily soiled, use a nonabrasive cleaning compound.
  • Do not clean these parts with abrasive or caustic type cleaners, or clean in a dishwasher as they will be damaged.

GENERAL HINTS AND TIPS

Cleaning the oven door

Cool air circulates through the door to lower the surface temperature on the outside of the oven door.

To remove the inner door glass for cleaning

• Open the door fully to access the hinges then rotate the 'stirrups' on both hinges fully towards the door.

• Slowly close the door until it stops against the ‘stirrups’.

• To remove the top caps, press the ribbed release clips at each end and lift top cap away from the door.

• Using both hands, gently remove the inner glass by sliding out and lifting away from the door.

• Hand wash only with a soft cloth and warm soapy water. When dry, polish with a soft cloth and ensure the glass is dry before re-assembly.

• Wipe inner and outer glass gently with detergent and warm water.

• Wipe clean and dry thoroughly.

Re-Assembling the oven door inner glass

• Replace the top caps ensuring the clips snap back into position.

• Fully open the door, rotate the stirrups back to their original position and close the door.

• When replacing the door inner glass, make sure the black dot is positioned as shown in the image (where applicable).

SAFETY WARNINGS ABOUT CLEANING

• WARNING : ALWAYS make sure that the cooker is turned off before cleaning.

• CAUTION :

  • ALWAYS clean cooker immediately after use.
  • DO NOT use steam cleaners. These may cause moisture build-up, especially in the glass door.
  • DO NOT use caustic based cleaners or harsh abrasives. These will damage your oven.

Door glass

• DO NOT use harsh abrasive cleaners or sharp metal scrapers to clean glass since they can scratch the surface, which may result in shattering of the glass.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR OVEN

Getting to know your new oven with this simple ‘Test Cake’

When baking, it is normal to experience some slight variation in temperature throughout the oven, resulting in minor differences in colour of the items being baked. You may need to rotate items whilst cooking to ensure an even colour.

SIMPLE ‘Test Cake’

125g butter, softened to room temperature

1 cup caster sugar

1 teaspoon pure vanilla essence

4 large eggs

2 cups self-raising flour Pinch of salt

4 tablespoons (80ml ) full-cream milk

Method:

1. Butter base and sides of two, 20cm straight-sided round or square cake pans. Then line the base with grease proof paper or baking paper.

2. Preheat oven to moderate 180˚C (170˚C fan forced) for 30 minutes and ensure oven shelf is in position 2 of the oven.

3. Cream softened butter and sugar until light in colour.

4. Add vanilla essence.

5. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.

6. Sift flour and salt into the mixture and beat until well combined.

7. Add milk and beat or stir to combine.

8. Spoon mixture equally between prepared cake pans.

9. Bake in preheated oven, position 2 for about 25 to 35 minutes. Tip: Insert a fine cake skewer into the cake mix. If it comes out clean, or if the edges of the cake have come away slightly from the sides of the cake pan, the cake is ready.

10. Remove from oven and place on wire cake rack and rest for 5 minutes before removing from cake pans. Cool completely.

To Serve: sandwich together with your favourite jam or conserve, and dust top with pure icing sugar.

NOTE: if desired, substitute butter for either margarine or olive oil spread.

Recipe is based on the Australian standard metric 250ml cup and 20ml tablespoon sets.
